Ezrene’s eyes widened, seeing that scenario in front of her. Even Asael’s brows wiggled in confusion who had just entered behind her. Dozens of different kinds of dresses, gowns and jewelleries were present in front of them, along with some strangers who looked like they were the sellers of those things and they were showing those clothes and jewelleries to her mother. It looked like they had entered inside some kind of a shopping mall or boutique, instead of their manor’s hall.They both exchanged a bewildered glance with each other before Ezrene stepped inside the hall and he followed her.“Mamma….” Ezrene called her mother who was talking to the designer of those clothes and jewelleries. Her mother turned her head around and smiled, seeing both of them in front of her.“Rene, Asael…come,” her mother stood up on her feet from the sofa.“Rene, he is Mr Fernandez, one of the main designers of E…Sinclaiz and he has specially come here on Ziven’s request to the owner of E.SInclaiz, Mr. K
Ezrene saw him coming closer to her which accelerated the beating of her heart. She immediately lowered her eyes because no matter how brave and courageous she tried to behave, he had that look in his eyes which was capable of making her extremely timid and shy and she didn’t know why. She barely blushed at anyone’s words but one look from him and she would turn into a complete tomato and he knew about this really very well.Asael stopped right in front of her and extremely closer to her where the warmth of their bodies grazed against each other. She felt him lowering his head and pushing it closer to her ear.“Even your denial comes with an acceptance, isn’t it, wifey?” he husked in her ear and this made her heart jiggle but she immediately took her head upward and looked towards him. Their eyes collided.“I selected this dress because it was looking the most beautiful on me,” she lied to him because she didn’t want to accept that she had picked this dress because he had selected it
“I will take Ezrene with me….” Asael spoke out, standing in between her and Jude while peering at Jude with his firm and rigid eyes which faded Jude’s grin completely. This startled Ezrene because she had never heard him raising his voice in front of Ziven. She had never even seen him taking his eyes upward in front of his father but today, for her, he had raised his voice and stood for her. This filled Ezrene’s heart with more warmth for him.Ezrene was peering at his back when her eyes travelled towards Ziven and she saw Ziven glaring at Asael. Like he loathed, seeing him raising his voice and head in front of him. This terrified Ezrene because she knew what kind of worse Ziven was capable of doing to Asael, so she immediately stepped forward and stood beside Asael.“Yes, I will go with Asael because we need to buy some things for our college assignment as we are planning on working on it from tomorrow together and we will get the stationary on our way. That’s why,” she handled the s
Asael halted his car in front of the party’s venue which made Ezrene sigh heavily. She stepped out of the car and he followed her action. Ezrene looked at the premises in front of her and just like she had expected, this place was looking extremely beautiful, huge and luxurious but where was the peace and happiness? This luxury failed to give her that. “Let’s go,” his voice took her out of her thoughts. Ezrene looked at him and then nodded. “And don’t you dare to forget what I have said to you,” he uttered to her, a bit rigidly and she knew he was talking about what he had said to her in his car, regarding Jude, so Ezrene just wagged her head at him. Her mood was already messed up, so she didn’t have the capacity to argue with him. Besides, she knew he was saying all those things to her for her own safety and betterment, so she should stop showing him her stubbornness.After that, they both went inside the hall where numerous people were already present. Big business men and women,
“Hello, Ezrene dear….” Ezrene went completely numb, seeing Jude in front of her. She snapped her head towards the door and found he had already locked it. This shuddered her very being in pure terror because she could clearly see in that vicious grin on his face that he was here to do the worse with her. His intentions had never been right for her but she never knew he was waiting for just one chance to harm her.“I thought about paying you a visit and telling you something really very important,” he uttered to her which made Ezrene look in his direction. She saw his diabolic eyes roaming all over her body which widened his grin and then his gaze stopped at her chest which brimmed that pool of lust and hunger in his wicked eyes for her. It made Ezrene clench her jaw in pure rage. She hurriedly tried to run towards the door but he came in front of her, blocking her way. “I need to talk to you, Ezrene dear. Where are you going?” he said to her, smirking. Ezrene fisted her palms.“Let
Asael’s bloodshot gaze fell over Jude which made him clench his jaw aggressively. People started whispering around them and then their parents came on the spot. Seana’s eyes enlarged in shock, seeing Ezrene wailing in Asael’s arms so badly. She dashed towards her daughter.“Ezrene…” her mother called her and this made Ezrene look towards her mother. She broke down into tears again just by seeing her mother and immediately wrapped her arms around her mother. Seana immediately embraced her back while tears stung in her own eyes as she could feel what had happened to her daughter. Ziven trailed his eyes away from Ezrene and then looked at Asael where he found him glowering at Jude and before he could do anything, he saw Asael storming towards Jude and then punched him across his face hard, causing a pool of blood to splash out of Jude’s mouth.“How fucking dared you to touch her, you bastard?” Asael roared out of his lungs and punched Jude again on his face and then kicked him on his sto
“Where is Asael?” Ezrene asked her mother and she noticed her mother tensing up as soon as she asked her about Asael. Her mother glanced at Ziven which made Ezrene also trail her eyes towards him and there she received her answer from him.“I have sent Asael somewhere away from here for a few days,” Ziven told her and this wiggled her brows in confusion.“Why?” she asked him instantly because she wanted to know where he was and why he had sent him away from here so suddenly. Ezrene witnessed Ziven sighing at her question before he finally opened his mouth to answer her.“After what he did to Jude in the party, I have to send him away from here in order to keep him away from the public eyes and the media as everyone saw what he has done to Jude, so for his safety, I sent him away until this matter didn’t resolve,” Ziven explained to her but somehow his explanation didn’t ease down that restlessness inside her heart which was still giving her those negative vibes that he was not in a saf
Ezrene's blood ran cold just with that thought that did Ziven send Asael to that room again. No, this could not happen. Not again, especially once again because of her. Ezrene hurriedly turned around to leave from there so that she could go and check that room in the garden but as soon as she turned around, she found her mother shifting on her place on the bed and then she opened her eyes.“Rene, what are you doing there?” Her mother asked her while getting up and sitting on the bed. Ezrene swallowed because she knew she could not tell her mother the truth. It might create another havoc but what if he was really in that room? She should try to talk to her mother regarding this.“Mamma….” Ezrene walked closer towards her mother.“I just saw Mr Ziven Elayzer coming inside the manor from the garden, so do you know what he might be doing there at this time of the night?” Ezrene uttered and noticed that her mother sighed heavily at her question.“Ziven sometimes has some digestion issues, s
“He is Cynthia's biological father,” Ezrene was frozen till her core by hearing Corbin because Cynthia had never told her regarding this that Braxton Waiyer was her father. She was just aware of this thing that he was Asael's mother's best friend. Even Cressa was peering at Corbin, shocked.“Her father?” Ezrene uttered, appalled. Corbin sighed before nodding at her.“Yes, Braxton Waiyer is Cynthia's father and it's one of the biggest reasons why Cynthia has used every ounce of her power to keep Asael safe from Ziven's clutches, so that she could use Asael to make Ziven pay for everything he has done to her father, Braxton Waiyer,” both Ezrene and Cressa heard his every word keenly.“But why did Ziven kill Braxton?” Cressa questioned, confused which made Corbin sigh.“All of this began when Ziven married Asael's mother, Anara. Despite her belonged from a financially poor family, Ziven married her who was a very renowned and powerful businessman even at that time but Ziven had his motiv
“Three years ago, he died that same exact night when Asael Elayzer died for the whole world,” Ezrene went completely numb by hearing those words of Cynthia’s. She just could not believe what she was hearing. Braxton Waiyer was dead? But how? Her mind refused to believe it.“What? But how?” Ezrene could not stop herself from asking Cynthia which made Cynthia sigh heavily before she finally parted her mouth to answer Ezrene.“Ziven killed him that night before me and Asael reached there,” Cynthia’s answer froze Ezrene till her core.“Because when we both reached there, we found Braxton Waiyer dead there. We could not save him from Ziven,” tears stung Ezrene’s eyes as soon as those words escaped from Cynthia’s mouth. By now she had been believing that he was alive because Braxton Waiyer was her only hope which was keeping that hope alive inside her heart that she could get back her Asael but she was not aware that that hope of hers had died that same exact night since she got that urge t
His glowering gaze peered into those silver eyes of that person whom he had trusted a lot throughout his life as that person knew the deepest and darkest secrets of his life. Cynthia Cooper. The woman who had made sure to keep him alive in order to satiate her own needs. She had made Ezrene do all of this?He watched Cynthia stepping inside that room and then walking closer to him. She stood right in front of him and then travelled her eyes back to Ezrene who was gazing at her through her glossy eyes. This made Cynthia sigh before she trailed her gaze back at him again.“It was me who made Ezrene lie to you about aborting your child and it was me who gave her those fake reports of her abortion,” he wordlessly heard every word of her and then twirled his head.He turned his head around to look at Ezrene where he found those tears streaming down from her eyes and as soon as her gaze collided with his, she lowered her head and this confirmed that everything Cynthia was saying was the tru
“Ms. Soler hadn't had an abortion but a miscarriage, three years ago,” those words of that gynaecologist froze him for a moment. It took him a while to process everything but when he did, his jaw clenched.Gripping his gun more firmly, he stood up on his feet and pressed the gun against that gynaecologist's head, freezing her in horror.“If you dared fucking lying to me then I will make this day the last day of your life,” he seethed out at her, outraged. Rage was searing inside him since the moment he got to know that she lied to him regarding her miscarriage. He just couldn't take it because only he knew how much in those three years he had been shattering from within. He was screaming, he was writhing but the most painful part was that no voice came out of his mouth regarding his pain.Megan swallowed in fear before she slowly shook her head and then turned the laptop towards him.“I….I am not lying. You can see it yourself,” she uttered to him while tears started forming in her eye
“You need to kill that gynaecologist right now,” that person heard those words on the call which made him shove that gun inside his pocket. “Your work will be done,” saying that he hung up the call and then covered his mouth with the mask and then roamed his eyes everywhere around that hospital before he walked out of that corner and then took a glance at his own reflection in the glass window where he found himself dressed up as a ward boy of that hospital.Covering his face more properly with the mask, he hurriedly walked towards the cabin of his target and Ezrene's gynaecologist, Megan.He knocked on her cabin’s door and then received her response to come in after almost half a minute which made him hurriedly step inside that cabin where he found her sitting on her chair and doing something on her laptop.Sensing his presence, gynaecologist Megan took her head upward from her laptop and looked at that person whom she assumed was a new ward boy as she had never seen him here before.
“Eat a bit, Rene. You haven't eaten anything for almost two days,” Cressa uttered to Ezrene while extending the bite of food towards her mouth but Ezrene made no efforts to eat the food who was sitting on the bed like a statue inside her room.Cressa passed a glance at Corbin who was also present there with both the girls. He was also looking extremely worried, especially seeing Ezrene's state. She was looking extremely weak and she even had a fever but she was still refusing to eat and that was concerning for everyone.“Rene….. please eat,” Cressa requested. “Yes, Ezrene….. please eat. For our sake. Your health will turn more bad if you continue to starve yourself like this,” Corbin also joined Cressa in persisting Ezrene to eat.“Yes, Rene. He is right. You know that staying hungry is extremely harmful for your health, so please eat,” Cressa pushed the bite of food more closer to Ezrene's mouth and this made Ezrene trail her eyes towards Cressa and seeing her eyes pleading her, Ezre
Peering straight into his viciously numb azure eyes, Ezrene shut her watery lashes tightly and pulled the trigger of that gun which she was pressing against her temple.“Ezrene,” both Cressa and Corbin shouted while storming towards her to stop her but it had already turned too late. She succeeded in pulling the trigger of the gun but which stunned everyone was that that gun didn't fire any bullet.Ezrene waited for that gun to tear her life out of her body but even after pulling the trigger, she heard and felt nothing. The clicking of the trigger resonated but no bullet came out of the gun which startled every single one present there, except for that one single person who was wordlessly peering at Ezrene.Slowly opening her eyes, Ezrene pulled back that gun and looked at it thoroughly. She pulled the trigger a couple more times but nothing happened which befuddled her until she noticed something which enlarged her eyes. That gun was empty. It didn't have any bullets but how was this
Holding a burning cigarette in between his fingers and sitting on that chair, his piercing sapphire eyes were gazing at that sun which had finally started rising up, illuminating the darkness of that night which was scattered all over the sky till now. He took a puff from the burning cigarette and blew its smoke through his mouth and nose but his gaze remained fixed at that rising sun without even falling his lashes. He finally felt the presence of his man who came forward and stood beside him. He bowed his head and then uttered those words to him.“He didn't kill that girl, boss,” hearing those words of his man, he smashed that burning cigarette in between his fingers before the corner of his mouth tugged upward. Slightly tilting his head, he dropped that smashed cigarette on the ashtray on the table and then stood up on his feet.“Get them in front of me,” he ordered his man who immediately nodded at him and then left, whereas his sapphire eyes remained glued to the sky which had n
“Take my life, Corbin,” Cressa uttered those words to him while a tear escaped from her own eyes because never in her worst she had ever imagined that she would have to say that thing to him, especially after meeting him after so long.From a distance, he just continued to stare at her in complete silence which made Cressa take her steps closer to him. Walking towards him, Cressa stopped right in front of him. Her face wore no fear, no regret, no desperation to save herself from his hands. Rather, she was looking calm, composed and at peace.“Kill me, Corbin and take both of us out from this painful dilemma,” she uttered, gazing into his firm grey eyes which lacked every emotion at that moment. He was staring at her like a lifeless statue and that thing hurt Cressa because you could never endure that person turning emotionless to whom your every emotion belonged.“Take my life and get yourself out of this painful choice of choosing between your strength and your weakness, Corbin. Kill
